Struggling with Stuff? Consign Your Worries Away.

After we doubled our number of children (read: we had a second child), my husband and I thought we wouldn’t get too much more stuff. We already had the obligatory gear, toys, and feeding paraphernalia.

And yet … these baby things tend to multiply. Or, perhaps it’s that this time around, we and our friends have wizened up to sharing and rotating our stuff. Still, there comes a point where you end up with more than you know what to do with. Though I’m busy doing loads of other things and have already donated plenty of kids items, there is a satisfaction in taking care of what my family has used on this planet, and seeing to it that it continues its useful life. The extra cash doesn’t hurt, either.

Enter the Just Between Friends Consignment Sale in Loudon, at the Dulles Sportsplex: the biannual savior and prompt to clean thy house. The Spring event on March 28weekend promises an opportunity to de-clutter your house while restocking with the things it turns out you really could use. The sale even got coverage on The Today Show for how great it is.

Consigning is straightforward, using the Just Between Friends online system. You have to show up on Thursday, March 27 to bring in your goods. Learn more about how to consign and sell your goods here.
